JURY IN TRO Hard Fought Case LLEY In the superfor court here Wednes- @ay the jury could not reach an agree- ment in the case of Esther Smith, executrix, againsf the Norwich and ‘Westerly Traction Co. for $10,000 dam- ges for the death of her husband, vid Smith of Groton, alleged to be from injuries received in a trolley ac- cident at Avery crossing -at North Stonington last fall. The case was in l‘l eighth day of the trial on Wednes- Court came in at 9 o'clock in the morning ang Judge Williams immedi- ately began his charge -to.the jury which occupied an hour and a half. At 10.30 the jury retired and at 12.15 it reporteq that it disagreed. Judge Williams told the jurymen that they should reach some sort of an agree- ment, after which he excused them for a half hour for dinner. At the| end of that time the jury again re- tired. This time the jury was ouf an hour and a quarter when it came in and reported that it could not reach an agreement. The jury was then | thankeq and discharged, after which eourt adjourned until Aug. 1. It was understood that the jury stood seven to five in faver of the defendant ecom- pany. Big List of Witnesses. In the course of the trial 29 witness- es were placed on the stand, aine of these being doctors. Of the medical experts, three, Dre. Charles F. Cong- don, Edwin C. Chipman and Harry ul. | for the trolley road contended that the Lee, were introduced by the defense, and six, Drs. Willilam M. Hill, Patrick Cassidy, Robert E. Harrington, John G. Stanton, Rush W. Kimball and Frank M. Hewes, were put on by the defense. The Contrary Claims. In the arguments made, the attor- neys for the plaintiff tried to prove negligence on the. part of the road in | the way the motorman operated the trolley express on the day of the acci- dent, and also in the way the crossing was constructed as to safeguards and warning signals at this point, and then from the testimony of their medical ex- perts to show that the death of Mr. Smith was the result of the accident and followed the injuries to his head which he was alleged to have received | in the trolley accident. | On the opposite side, the attorneys negligence was on the part of Mr. Smith, who was driving the team, and | also that his death was not occasioned | by the injuries that he received in the | trolley accident, but that he died from | ‘natural causes a number of days after the accident. It is believed the case may be taken to the supreme court. Judge Goes to New Haven. Judge William H. Williams, who has presided at the trial, goes from here! to New Haven to open a term of the! criminal court which has had to wait | until this case was over. | GIVEN TO CITY MISSION.

Acting on complaints made to him, | Chief George Linton despatched a par- ! ty of Policemen down Laurel Hill way on Wednesday afternoon about 3.30 to round up any men swimmers who might be bathing off the end of the long dock, clad only in nature's garb, but there were none in the water thewu. This is an annual source of com- plaint at this point on account of boys, and the police usually have to give the matter attention at least once each season, but it is not always grown men against whom the complaint is regis- ! tered, as in this case. Bathers who go in without bathing suils here are com- | plained about by people both on La rel Hill and by, residents on the oppo- | site side of the river, while it is also annoving for the launch parties that’ travel up and down the river to run plump up to a group of naked bathers at this point. The poiice will see that men and boys who want to swim therc are suitably clothed. Men at the railroad station have had plenty of rice and old shoes to brush up this week. The most annoy- ing day was Tuesday, when friends of four wedding parties decorated the platform.
